We rented 2 homes next to each other. Both homes compliment each other. The house is a perfect location on the lake and this house comes with a working hot tub and kayaks to play in the lake.

The rooms are huge! The views are beautiful and there is plenty of room in the house so your entire family can be spread out. We had a great time.

Great stay, some of the game equipment was not in the best shape otherwise enjoyed everything
10.0 / 10.0
Our large extended family enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean and roomy. Some minor problems with uncomfortable furniture and broken patio furniture didn't keep us from having a great time. The house is well-located on the lake, with plenty of smooth water for boating and skiing. A grocery store is 5 minutes away. The advertised small beach is really a sand box, but that was okay. We have booked for next summer.

Outside areas, especially the dock. Large accommodating home with spaces to go to for privacy.
8.0 / 10.0
This was a large house located directly on the lake. Check-in process was easy, the house was clean, and, The cleanup steps to check out were minimal.
It does look like the bedroom configuration was a little different than what we expected - with only two bedrooms in the basement, three on the main floor, and four bedrooms on the upper level. Still a total of nine bedrooms, so it all worked out fine.
All in all, this was a good house to rent for a large family lake trip.
6.0 / 10.0
This is the third house that we rented through Vacasa for our annual trip to Lake Anna. It served the purpose but is definitely not the best one.
Pros: Inside is great - lots of bedrooms space and beds for a big group, plenty of game options (basketball, pool table, etc.), kitchen is well stocked including two dishwashers and two fridges (+ more than enough coffee makers LOL).
If it rained or were cold, staying inside would be perfect. However, we came on very sunny days.
Cons: Outside needs a freshen-up especially for warm weather months. Outdoor furnitures and space were full of spiderwebs and bugs. No water activity supplies except for three kayaks (comparing to our previous rentals which both provided plenty of supplies in the boat house). House/boat house are very close to the neighbor's. Plumbers came to fix the hot tub during our stay but we didn't get to use it because water didn't really heat up.

We enjoyed being all together in this beautiful, spacious house! The double fridges were awesome and we had some great meals together! The house was decently stocked, but disorganized. We were also frustrated by lots of broken furniture, all the games in the game room were broken or missing pieces (that was a big reason we booked this house) and the house was not completely clean when we arrived. Their communication was excellent, tho, lots of texts to be sure we were satisfied and they were quick to respond. We were missing a complete coffee pot and they brought a new one right over. Even though we were disappointed in the state of the house, we are thankful for the spacious accommodations and that we could all be together!

Beautiful view of the lake, plenty of sleeping areas, nice outdoor fire pit.
8.0 / 10.0
Home was nice and spacious but desperately needed some upgrades to beds and other furniture. A window was left opened and we entered the house full of bugs. The community boat ramp was locked and wasn’t provided a key. There were hundreds of cigarette butts at entrance of home. We had to contact maintenance first day to repair toilets, the water was brown and we had to buy water for drinking and cooking..some of the blinds were broken and couldn’t let them down fully. Pots n pans were horribly out dated, luckily we brought a few of our own. The walk to the lake from house was torture from all the mosquitoes.

We booked the house for a weekend Leadership Retreat for our company.. House is large enough to accommodate more than 14 people.
8.0 / 10.0
We stayed with several families and small children and found the house suited our needs. Very spacious and well laid out with room for everyone to spread out but also come together in the TV and play rooms as well as the spacious kitchen. Access to the lake was great and we appreciated the kayaks that gave us a chance to get out on the water. There were some quirks with the furniture and a couple missing kitchen items that would have come in handy but overall would recommend and would return!
10.0 / 10.0
Would definitely recommend!! We had 8 staff members at the house for a retreat. Everyone had their own room, plenty of space (indoors and outside)for meetings and activities. Internet connection was good for conferencing and streaming.
The house is lose to some nice local restaurants for dinner, and a grocery store for anything we needed. It was a great kitchen for us to prepare our own breakfasts and lunches. I have never stayed in a VRBO that had so much of the little stuff…trash bags, paper towels, toilet paper, soap, spices etc. Having two large fridges and two dishwashers was helpful.
We enjoyed the kayaks, fire pit, ping pong, pool table, foosball and large screen in the living room. Vacasa’s local staff was attentive and had the coffee pot replaced within an hour when we noticed a crack in the carafe.

This home is very well laid out for a large number of people. The kitchen is fantastic! Many games (such as ping pong, etc) and huge deck with great views! The home shows a tad bit of wear from renting, but nothing to keep you from wanting to rent this place. Really great for large number of people.

We had our family reunion at The Great Escape. Beautiful home, plenty of room for everyone.
A couple of suggestions:
Pressure wash the exterior, the mildew is not attractive. Perform maintenance on the bathrooms. Some toilets were non functional. It's an expensive rental and our group expected better.
8.0 / 10.0
Loved all the outdoor seating, large kitchen and 3 refrigerators, pantry was a bonus. Had perfect weather and several of us used the kayaks. We were disappointed to get a message from the rental company that our group was too loud after 10:00. There was another large group next door to us, so not certain we were the issue. We had groups around the firepit, had no singing or loud music, just family catching up after no visiting for several years. Overall we had a wonderful time and would like to come back next year. Also, the listing says 9 bedrooms but there were 10. Didn’t need the air mattress we brought.

The views are simply amazing! The property is gorgeous and the interior has lots to do for everyone in case of rain. This home has plenty of room to have quiet time to read a book enjoy a movie on the large television or enjoy the fire pit with a group of friends. The view of the lake from the living room and balcony is amazing.

The property was beautiful and well maintained. The rooms were large and there was plenty of room to break up into small groups or be all together in the kitchen/dining area. This was a large family gathering with my 92 year old father, his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. We used the deck, dock and boat house all week (rented a pontoon boat and brought kayaks). The area was perfect for our needs and everyone enjoyed the trip. Showers needed a second cleaning before they were really clean but the managers were very responsive and had someone out quickly. The humidity outside was very high and made the basement floor very humid and one bedroom in the basement had no vent so was stuffy but other than that the home was comfortable.. We would rent again if going to that area.

Arrived to the house being 82 degrees on main level and 86 upstairs level. First night....miserable. Air conditioning was not working. Good thing we brought air mattresses along and were able to set up in the basement(nothing like spending $10k+ and have to put your family on air mattresses...Second day spent managing vendors...nice HVAC tech that had to call his boss to help him identify what the issue may be...he almost left saying "this is is good as it is gonna get" when the temp upstairs was 82 degrees and not falling. Fortunately, we told him he couldn't leave til he got the temp to drop and he put a thermometer on the fan and realized it was not blowing cold air. Eventually after being at the property for about 4+ hours and having his boss show up, they found a unit on the other side of the house that was the issue. Meanwhile, one of the inside refridgerators stopped cooling, so another appliances tech had to come out to defrost the bottom freezer and fix that unit, and also looked at the separate ice maker in the bar and said that unit was a lost cause. Luckily we did not lose any food, but we did lose precious vacation time managing the vendors and a property that we paid handsomely for.
Additionally, we tried to follow the "no shoes" in the house rule, until we all realized that the bottom of our feet were black. The floors were clearly not cleaned and the carpets were filthy. Disgusting. Needless to say, the ladies in the group were unamused.
Outside, the deck and patio need power washed and overall the property is simply not maintained.
Very disappointed that we spent the first couple days aggravated, hot and texting and calling for help and then having to manage a maintenance team. We were supposed to be relaxing on vacation. It was our first time to Lake Anna and compared to our experiences at the Poconos and Deep Creek Lake, it was lack luster mainly because of the property.

House was a wonderful set up for our family.
The only issue we had was the cleanliness of the house when we arrived. we had to do some housekeeping at the beginning of our stay.
View of the lake from the dock and decks was wonderful
10.0 / 10.0
We had a great time celebrating our friend's birthday here, with a large group recently. The deck is huge, giving your group ample room to spread out and relax. Unlike the home next door (to the left: Logging off), there was plenty of light in the kitchen, with all the lights on. This is important, because even when the sunset, there was plenty of light inside to enjoy. We have stayed at Logging off next door, and there is hardly any light in the home, when the sun sets.
We did have to call service once as the water pressure was really low. They came within the hour, and fixed the issue.
The private dock (and below deck with the firepit) was really nice.
Highly recommend the home!
There's a food lion grocery store (5-6 minute drive) if you need to grab any groceries, etc.

Weekend away
We needed a house rental for a long weekend and this one delivered. We had 15 adults in our party, and we had plenty of room to hang out, gather, separate and relax. This house was awesome, we will stay again and hopefully next time in the summer so we can use the lake.

Our Family Thanksgiving
We had a wonderful time at Lake Anna. The property was perfect for our large family of 15 adults and 2 children. There was plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable and the children loved playing pool, basketball and ping pong along with games and puzzles. The house was clean and well stocked with everything we needed to prepare dinners for 17 people. Having 2 dishwashers was incredible! Due to the beautiful fall weather, we were able to relax around the gorgeous fire pit and view of the lake. The location is close to many activities and outdoor activities. We loved the house and location.

The house is totally awesome. Very open with great lighting. The kitchen is perfect for big groups of people. The water pressure leaves something to be desired but we would definitely rent again.

October Escape
The Great Escape was just that and more.... we had 16 adults and 4 small children and had plenty of space. The house was clean and spacious for all of us. We enjoyed the lake and the fire pit. Needs a few minor upgrades and repairs but we loved it and want to return next year!

Plenty of room
Great house for a group of friends. The TVs in the bedrooms didn't work but that was okay because we weren't there to stay in our rooms watching TV. I would suggest fixing the shades in the second floor bedroom. The kitchen and 2 full size refrigerators got alot of use.

A Wonderful Family Retreat
This was a beautiful, extremely spacious home that accommodated our family of 21 easily! The view and access to Lake Anna was wonderful, and we spent many hours out at the boat house swimming, sunbathing, boating with water sports, and with rented jet skis. The trip was as much fun as any family get-together we've ever had!

Lake Anna Vacation
This place is simply amazing. There were 17 of us, including our parents and their grandchildren, ages ranging from 7 to 19. Everyone had a great time. The place was clean, everything was in working order and all our questions were answered. There is no gym equipment, but the lake is very pleasant for swimming. We recommend that you take water shoes since the bottom of the lake where you can stand is rocky.

Had a great vacation with friends
Had a great time, it worked out well..Interior is great and had everything what we need in the house. Internet is glitchy and it works through satellite. Would recommend Wifi Mesh if you have any plans to work from the place.
Outside should have been much more cleaner, there were lot of insects around the house.
Whitney from Vacasa was great and helpful. We got new life jackets when asked for more life jackets for Kayaking.
Had a wonderful stay overall!

A great location to get away to!
We used the house to host a quilting retreat with 15 people. There was plenty of room for us to sew, cook and eat our way through the week. We thoroughly enjoyed the house, the lake view, and the eagle nest in the backyard!

Best large family reunion house
Extended family reunion for long weekend in may. Not many places at lake Anna or VA that has 10 bedrooms. Couldnt find a better house for our crowd and needs. Tons of space for socializing, awesome game room, swimming, kayaking, playground for kids, large lawn, great view. Customer service and directions to gain access were great. WiFi signal not very strong with a lot of devices accessing but Verizon signal on phone was good enough. Thanks for providing the place to have lasting family memories!

Perfect lakeside retreat
It appeared that the owners were in the very final stages of an exterior refresh of the house when we arrived - The new look of the house and deck is absolutely gorgeous, and some of the furniture inside has been upgraded from the photos as well. Everything was pretty much outstanding - decently comfortable beds and plenty of space for us to spread out and be comfortable, though (as with most vacation rentals in my experience) the kitchen supplies are hit or miss, (like, 15 spatulas but an incomplete set of measuring cups and spoons, and ZERO kitchen knives that weren't serrated.). We also struggled (as did another reviewer) with the TV situation - we could not get the direct TV to work, and the remote for the main TV in the living room was completely broken - we had to use the buttons on the back of the tv and could only power on and adjust the volume, but the sound was terrible. There were additional speakers and a subwoofer, but we had no way to control them or adjust the volume. The DVD player was the only device that worked with the TV. As expected, wifi was iffy but we used it as an excuse to disconnect the kids from devices and they spent most of their time in the multiple kayaks and fishing from the dock, or in the basement which was loaded with fun. When work needed to get done, we used a personal hotspot, which worked nicely. All in all, we loved the place, especially since it was dog friendly. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
